It is finished! glorious word From thy lips, our suffering Lord! Words of high, triumphant might, Ere thy spirit takes its flight. It is finished! all is o'er; Pain and scorn oppress no more. Now, no more foreboding dread Shades the path thy feet must tread; No more fear, lest in thine hour Pain should patience overpower; On the perfect sacrifice Not a stain of weakness lies. Champion! lay thine armor by; 'Tis thine hour of victory! All thy toils are now o'erpast; Thou hast found thy rest at last; All hath faithfully been done, And the world's salvation won.
